I useually stay out of this kind of thing but they came looking for me!
Someone on the ever lulzy Vampire Freaks invited me to join the cult "Steam-Punkers", I've been avoiding Steam Punk since it became trendy because it brought out all the pervs and crazies, but the godawful photo on the invite pretty much forced me to click:

Yeah because in a Neo-Victorian world she wouldn't be aressted for public indecency AT ALL, now would she?
*takes a moment to sharpen claws before proceeding to the Steampunk Clothing thread*
Oh dear Gods no!

WTF IS THAT???
Allow me to list my problems with this:
1.It's probably not that colour, there's a sepia filter over it, kind of pointless for a fashion shoot.
2. That isone seriously fugly dress.
3.COG PRINT!
4. BROWN!
BEHOLD! Two more gems from the set:


JUST WHAT???
And what in the word is with the giant bloomer thingys? And the terrible choices of footwear??? gfdfg!
Stupidly I then made a bee-line for the "Show us your Steampunkery" thread, where I stumbled upon:

I don't get it...At all, how is this Steampunk?
Anyways the whole cult is one big advert for: steam-punkers.com
Which you know if the name wasn't allready taken I'd suggest a name change to "failblog"...
Their gallery is all thieved images (my concience is making me email Datamancer to tell him they have a photo of one of his laptops that they haven't even bothered to credit as his), and it's just all so eye searingly bad!
:(
